Summary

Aston Martin's decision to reignite the Valkyrie Le Mans Hypercar project for the World Endurance Championship and IMSA SportsCar Championship from 2025 has sent waves through the sportscar racing community. The iconic 1959 Le Mans victor is making a grand re-entrance to La Sarthe, yearning for that much-deserved title at the 24 Hours. As we delve into the episode, we journey back to Aston Martin's roots in sportscar racing during its golden era. We reminisce about the stellar performance of 1959 and victory with the DBR1. However success has been elusive since then. Martyn Lee is joined by Gary Watkins and Kevin Turner to unpick the reasoning behind Aston Martin's grand return to Le Mans and sportscar, their renewed aspirations, strategic outlook, and the envisioned path ahead. This episode sheds light on how the combined vision of Lawrence Stroll, Gabe Newell, and Heart of Racing is realigning Aston Martin's trajectory, ensuring it remains rooted in its legacy while embracing the future.
